Hailey Bieber fêted the launch of her skincare line Rhode in Canada, keeping things business as usual a week after she and Selena Gomez called for an end to the viral TikTok discourse about their history. Hailey dressed in a light blue three-piece LaQuan Smith set for her Canadian dinner. The look, consisting of a bandeau, blazer, and low-rise mini skirt, put her toned core on display.
Hailey shared photos on her Instagram, captioning it, “@rhode Canada launch dinner 🥹🤍 such an amazing evening with amazing people. Love you Toronto 🇨🇦”
Earlier this week, Hailey announced the release of a special Rhode passion fruit jelly peptide lip treatment, out on April 6. She spoke to ELLE.com about the inspiration behind the tropical flavor, saying, “As our community’s demand and requests for our Peptide Lip Treatment continue to grow, expanding on its flavors has become a top priority for us. We created a juicy flavor that embodies the essence of warm weather and my favorite time of year—spring and summer!”
The product can be preordered here.
Hailey has kept her social media running normally throughout TikTok’s weeks of dissecting her treatment of Selena and theorizing it may not have always been kind. After Hailey and Selena followed each other last Friday on Instagram after posting statements, Hailey got attention this week for liking one of Selena’s bikini pics in a continued show of public support.
Hailey discussed in the statement she shared last Friday the importance of everyone, including herself, being mindful of the messages they’re posting to the word.
She wrote:
I want to thank Selena for speaking out, as her and I have been discussing the last few weeks how to move past this ongoing narrative between her and I.
The last few weeks have been very hard for everyone involved and millions of people are seeing so much hate around this, which is extremely harmful. While social media is an incredible way to connect and build community, moments like this only create extreme division instead of bringing people together.
Things can always be taken out of context or construed differently than they were intended. We all need to be more thoughtful about what we post and what we say, including myself.
In the end, I believe love will always be bigger than hate and negativity, and there is always an opportunity to meet each other with more empathy and compassion.
